Anthony Kim carded a second round 64 to join Camilo Villegas at the top of the leaderboard on eight under at the halfway stage of the Honda Classic (Kim & Villegas both 3/1 The Honda Classic In-Play) at Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

Argentinian star Villegas carded his second consecutive 66 which allowed US Ryder Cup star Kim to move level with him as the race for the title intensifies.

Kim made seven birdies during his second round and was delighted to move into contention ahead of his third round two balls against Villegas (Kim 21/20, Villegas 20/21, Tie 8/1 The Honda Classic 3rd Round 2 Balls).

“I feel really good,” he said. “I’ve been working hard on my game, and the last couple of months I’ve really started to play better.

“I’m happy to have another opportunity to put four good ones together and hopefully have a chance to win the tournament on the back nine.”

Vijay Singh (6/1 Honda Classic In-Play) is a shot behind the leaders after a second-round 66 while Jerry Kelly (16/1) sits on six under par following his 65.
